Question 1

After confirming that the file system is not mounted, what should the administrator do next?



Answer : B

When attempting to recover a corrupted file system, the administrator should first confirm that the file system is not mounted. If the file system is not mounted, then the administrator should run the fsck command with the -F (force) flag. This will force the fsck command to check the file system for errors and attempt to fix them. Reference: IBM AIX v7 Administrator Specialty Study Guide (page 8-23).


Question 2

A customer calls to complain about slow workload performance but offers no additional details. What should the administrator do next?



Answer : A

When a customer calls with a complaint about slow workload performance, it is important to ask for additional details to help pinpoint the source of the issue. This could include details such as which application or process is running slowly, what errors are appearing, how long the issue has been occurring, etc. Having this information will help the administrator to determine the cause of the problem and determine the best course of action.

Question 3

Which AIX command displays the types, counts, and percentages of LPAR memory?



Answer : C

The vmstat command is used to display the types, counts, and percentages of LPAR memory. The -v flag is used to display the virtual memory statistics, including the types and counts of memory. Reference: IBM AIX v7 Administrator Specialty Study Guide (page 6-17).


Question 4

When a user logs in. the processing of their .profile is very slow. Which issue could contribute to the problem?



Answer : A

When a user logs in, the system will process their .profile file which contains the PATH variable. This variable specifies the list of directories that the system will search through to locate executable files. If the PATH variable contains non-existent directories, then it will take longer for the system to process the .profile file, resulting in a slower login experience.

Question 5

An AIX administrator is struggling with installing RPM packages. When they try to install a package, errors appear that there are prerequisite RPMs that also need to be installed. Which tool can be used to simplify resolving these dependencies?



Answer : B

Installp is a command-line package management tool that is used in the AIX operating system to install, remove, and manage software packages. It simplifies the installation of RPM packages by automatically resolving any prerequisite dependencies and installing them before the main RPM package. This ensures that any prerequisites are installed and configured correctly before the main package is installed, reducing the time it takes to resolve installation issues.
